Asset Managers and solar plant Operations and Maintenance teams are always the brains, hands and feet on the ground. As a part of the AM / OM team you are always responsible for the daily operations as well as the on-ground performance of the assets.
Apollo’s central monitoring application helps in real time solar performance monitoring by easily identifying the least performing sites – whether it is using Performance ratio %, Availability, CUF or Active power as the Target KPI. The event app allows users to see exactly what events and alarms are happening across the portfolio in a single screen – already prioritised as per impact and duration.
With multiple contractual KPIs such as plant availability, performance ratio, capacity utilization factor etc to meet, maximizing productivity is very important. However, this needs to be balanced with the budgets that were planned– the problem gets even more complicated as the number of assets under management keeps increasing even further. Time and money are 2 resources that you have to constantly optimize upon – this cannot be done scanning through 100+ SCADA screens, to identify where the issue is, and then plan to send a person to the site or add a truck roll! It is very important to minimize and eliminate any delay in the time it takes to identify, prioritize, and rectify an operational issue.
Streamline your O&M ServicesThe Apollo’s all in one product allows users to drive higher efficiencies in terms of improved uptime, better system performance, reduced costs and increased profits.
Alert PrioritisationCustomize how and when you receive alerts and prioritize by severity, system size, and other metrics to quickly address issues causing the most downtime. View a timeline of events to understand trends. See inverter fault codes and understand their significance without referencing the inverter manual.
Deep Dive into Each DeviceIdentify and sort all site devices (inverters, meters, weather stations, PPCs, etc.) to easily check status and quickly pinpoint faults.
Soiling Analysis and Evaluation of CleaningThis extremely powerful tool runs health checks on all site equipment to automatically detect and provide alerts. Additionally, this tool provides an automatic reminder to clean panels after reaching a threshold of soiling loss without forecasted rain.
Built-in and Customized ChartingInteractive, built-in charting enables custom charting for users, conducting the deviation analysis and troubleshooting. Several chart types, any device, any equipment can be plotted with time series as well as X-Y analysis conducted
Field Force ManagementLeverage the computerized maintenance management system to increase field force efficiency and productivity to reduce costs.
O&M AutomationAuto-trigger work orders based on user-defined criteria and predictive AI models. Move away from time-based work orders to performance-based work orders, thereby increasing efficiency.
Work Order AnalyticsTrack the effectiveness and capability of your teams by analysing work order data analytics in the cloud and optimising their work flow accordingly. Identify the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) & Mean time to rectify (MTTR)
